Easy, Last Minute Appetizers

It isn't necessary, but it always makes a party feel more festive when you serve a few hors d'oeuvres or appetizers. This way, as you're putting the finishing touches to your dinner (it always takes me 5 minutes longer than I've budgeted) your guests will have fun nibbles to keep them busy. Here is my collection of very quick and easy hors d'oeuvres and appetizers that can be tossed together, in most cases, in under 10 minutes.
